I know what you’re thinking—but it’s finally fall! Chuck out the green stuff and bring on the carbs! Look, I can hibernate with the best of em, but you gotta trust me—with the addition of my Mediterranean Farro Salad and tangy Apple Vinaigrette, this fall harvest salad is hearty and filling. Perfect paired next to a whole roasted chicken or as a lighter lunch on those warmer fall days. Coming off the tail-end of spring, I used mixed greens that were still available at the local market, but as it gets cooler I would substitute kale and/or arugula. The peppery watermelon radishes with the slightly sweet vinaigrette has all the flavors of fall to leave you feeling extra comforted, Enjoy!
